Leaving (2)

Upon entering the gates to the orchards, the farm hands and Mano saw the forty or so bodies of the crew of the ship dead on the ground. Their blood had turned the soil blood and frozen faces were staring back at them.

Mano looked at his youngest daughter, who just shrugged her shoulders before walking deeper into the orchards.

Majority of the trees closest to the gates, barrier, and towards the middle of the orchards were all heavily burnt. Leaving only a couple of hundreds of trees to the right fine.

Turning to the farm hands, Mika gave out her orders.

"Extract as many trees as you can safely and load them on to the conveyor carts. We will use these shuttle ship to transport them to the main ship for loading."

Everyone present looked to Lord Mano for confirmation.

"Be quick, but do not damage the trees. Get as many as you can." Mano added behind his daughter's words.
